| Title | |
| Description | The team identified a finding of very-low safety significance (Green) and associated NCV of the LaSalle County Station Operating License for the failure to ensure that procedures were in effect to implement the alternate shutdown capability. Specifically, the abnormal operating procedures (AOPs) established to respond to a fire at the main control room did not include instructions for verifying that supply breakers for three reactor core isolation cooling motor-operated valves (MOVs) were closed to ensure they could be operated from the remote shutdown panel. Fire-induced failures could result in tripping MOV power supply breakers prior to tripping the MOV control power fuses. The licensee captured the team concerns in their CAP as AR 02668854 and established compensatory actions to reset the affected breakers, if required The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone attribute of protection against external events (fire), and affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The finding screened as of very-low safety significance (Green) because it was assigned a low degradation factor. Specifically, the procedural deficiencies could be compensated by operator experience/familiarity and the fact that the AOPs included steps to verify other breakers at the same locations were closed would likely prompt operators to close the remaining breakers. The team determined that this finding had a cross cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution because the licensee failed to take effective corrective actions for a similar issue identified in 2014. Specifically, the resolution of this issue included actions to revise the affected AOPs to include verifying all the reactor core isolation cooling MOVs supplied breakers were closed. However, the licensee failed to include all of the MOVs in the revised AOPs. [P.3] |
